In a recent article in Investopedia on the eight most successful products from Shark Tank, Copa Di Vino – featured in QA’s January/February 2016 issue, was given the Honorable Mention -- despite the company's two-time rejection of offers from the Sharks. The write-up:
- The Product: A portfolio of seven different wines in a recycled glass-like container (patented) with a resealable, pull-off lid.
- Sharks that bit: None. Despite two appearances on the show, a deal could not be reached with the sharks.
- Sales: Copa Di Vina had sales of $500,000 before the pitch and $14 million in 2015.
